Have you ever taken a sick day due to renegade?[ 55 votes ]
1. Yes 11 / 20%
2. No 44 / 80%

I've taken a few sick days due to renegade, a few years ago I took days off here and there because I was playing it into the morning and was too tired for work.
After that I sometimes called in sick here and there because I was using level edit and making mods, I was enjoying it so much I got wrapped up in it and again was doing it till the early hours.
Today I took a sick day because I over-slept. My alarm went off and I must of just turned it off. I was in bed at a reasonable time, but I've really been putting some time into this recent commander plug-in and I guess I was exhausted. I woke up 20 minutes after I was supposed to start work, so I rang in sick.
It sounds like I call in sick allot, but I have a pretty decent record to be honest. It dawned on me though that I've probably had at least five days sick in total off work due to cnc_renegade.
I guess that's pretty sad of me.

Have you ever had a day off due to it?

I rarely take sick days at all, and I've never played a video game long enough to tire me out and neglect other responsibilites.

Every so often, I get this positive feeling that humanity can somehow, possibly attain pure awesomeness, and enlightenment, and that there is light at the end of the road for us all. However, I only need to go to the latest HUD thread at RenForums to remind me of how dumb I was for thinking such stupid things.

Not off work, I actually have an incentive to go there. When I was in school and college, sure.

Wimps take sick days when they don't absolutely need to. I hate to be so blunt but working with people who take sick days sucks.

I had perfect attendance all through school. I rarely if ever miss work(work over the summers).

It's simple. You stay up to late you get your lazy ass up in the morning. There's no thinking about it because theres no option. You just do it. You make others lives harder when you call in sick.

I run my own business and have for several years. My family also owns several fast food restraunts. It pisses me off when people call in sick because either my parents or I have to go in and work. That means I get called into work at 9 am on saturday morning after getting home from a night of drinking till 5am.

Mr. Green

When I was a manager at a warehouse, the worst days were Saturday's, because you knew that one or two morons would call in sick. It got to the point that I went to bed at 10pm on Friday nights because I knew I'd be woken up by the phone at 6am to come in. Sad

I'll play Renegade if I were actually sick to get my mind off of the sickness, but I've never taken a day off due to Renegade/in order to play Renegade.

I suck it up and go out to do what needs to be done.
Besides, back in high school there were plenty of useless classes I could take naps in Razz
